Protect me as the pupil of your eye;

hide me in the shadow of your wings

As a deer longs for flowing streams,

so I long for you, God.

God, we have heard with our ears —

our ancestors have told us —

the work you accomplished in their days,

in days long ago:

My heart is moved by a noble theme

as I recite my verses to the king;

my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer.

God is our refuge and strength,

a helper who is always found

in times of trouble.

Clap your hands, all you peoples;

shout to God with a jubilant cry.

The LORD is great and highly praised

in the city of our God.

His holy mountain,

Hear this, all you peoples;

listen, all who inhabit the world,

How lovely is your dwelling place,

LORD of Armies.

LORD, you showed favor to your land;

you restored the fortunes of Jacob.[fn]

The city he founded[fn] is on the holy mountains.

LORD, God of my salvation,

I cry out before you day and night.

Keep my commands and live,

and guard my instructions

as you would the pupil of your eye.

Whoever curses his father or mother ​— ​

his lamp will go out in deep darkness.

For the LORD of Armies says this: “In pursuit of his glory, he sent me against the nations plundering you, for whoever touches you touches the pupil[fn] of my[fn] eye.
